What our neighbors
are doing
“It takes a heap 0‘livin’ " the kiiully poet sung, "to
make the house you live in, into a real home.” The
wedding bells of June lime—the doctors solemn bow
—the pitter pat of tiny feet are some things one
must know, if one would feel the joy there is in home
life at its best—a place of love and comfort where
the weary go for rest. "It takes a heap o' living,”
a lot of tears and joy to give the home you live in its
claims none may destrov. The man who dwells in
• «
borrowed house and moves from place to place is
missing much that’s best in life-tint nothing will
replace.
Talk over with us the matter of a
home of your own—it is less
difficult than many
imagine.
